At my request, I received a boxed set of four movies from the Mystery Science Theater series on television. I doubt that you received this in England, but it was a favorite of my son Aaron and me. The pretense is intentionally silly... a man and three robots he built out of common household items are forced to watch the worst movies ever made as a form of torture. Their figures are silhouted in front of a movie screen, and they make endless wise cracks and supply their own dialogue for the movies.

Things have been a little on the stressful side here the last couple of weeks, so I've watched all four movies. I'd be hard pressed to pick the worst of the four, and because the series ran weekly for ten years, it gives some idea of the magnitude of lousy movies.
